Global Power Struggle: Footsteps of the Third World War

Our report "Global Power Struggle: Footsteps of the Third World War" predicts that the risk of the Third World War is becoming a growing concern in the international arena today and the efforts of great powers to protect their interests could lead to global conflicts.

KOSAM'S "Footsteps of the Third World War" REPORT CONTAINS CRITICAL FINDINGS

Development-Oriented Strategic Research Center (KOSAM) shared its report "Global Power Struggle: Footsteps of the Third World War” with the public. KOSAM's report predicts that the risk of the Third World War is increasingly a growing concern in the international arena and the efforts of major powers to protect their interests may lead to global conflicts.

Newlines from the Report:

×          Deepening of the Russia-Ukraine war

×          The possibility of China - US conflict

×          Increasing tensions in the Israel-Palestine War

×          Energy, food and cybersecurity threats

In the report prepared by KOSAM, which operates within Konya Chamber of Commerce (KTO) Karatay University, the risk of World War III, which has been on the agenda of the whole world for a long time and causes concerns with the increase in global tensions, is evaluated in all its dimensions. The report, which prioritizes the world's socio-political agenda and global security, argues that the tensions between the great powers should be reduced with result-oriented solutions and that the implementation of strategies such as diplomacy, cooperation and increasing social resistance is a priority.

The Economic Burdens of War is Growing Every Day

The report emphasizes that the risk of World War III has become a growing concern in the international arena. NATO's intervention in the war in Ukraine has increased the risk of global conflict and magnified the economic burdens of war. Deficiencies in aid to Ukraine have contributed to the escalation of the conflict.

"Many Factors Increase the Risk of World War III"

In an environment where tensions in Europe and Asia increase the risk of war, the report points out that the US is not yet ready for a major global war, and that the United States' inadequacy in the face of China's military and technological developments poses certain threats. It is stated that a possible conflict between Israel and Iran raises the possibility of a large-scale war, while Europe's direct confrontation with Russia and political changes in the United States increase the risk of World War III.

"International Peace is Under Threat"

The report highlights the activities of various alliances such as the United Kingdom, Russia, China, North Korea and Iran. Especially, China's plans for Taiwan will directly affect Western countries. In this period of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine and China's escalating threats against Taiwan, it is critical for the West to increase its war preparations and strengthen social resilience. It is emphasized that traditional wars are being replaced by low-intensity conflicts and proxy wars, while nuclear armament and regional instability threaten international peace.

3 Different Scenarios for the Third World War

As a result of analyses, studies and findings, the report highlights 3 possibilities for the Third World War scenario;

·      Expansion of the Russia-Ukraine War: The first possibility is that the West will increase its support for Ukraine in the Russia-Ukraine War, causing war to expand.

·      Direct Conflict between China and the US: In the second scenario, China's invasion of Taiwan in the South China Sea and a direct confrontation with the United States is more likely.

·      Rising Tensions in the Middle East: In the third and final picture, war and conflict in the Middle East strengthens the possibility of a Third World War.

Call for Peace from KOSAM

These three scenarios show how tensions in the world have reached dangerous level and are potentially on the brink of large-scale conflict. Each scenario illustrates how the efforts of great powers to protect their strategic interests could convert into a global war. This situation increases the importance of the international community's diplomatic efforts and clearly demonstrates the need to seek peaceful solutions. KOSAM underlines the importance of diplomacy, cooperation and building social resilience to reduce the risk of conflict and war around the world and calls on all international actors to take responsibility and work together for peace to minimize the risk of World War III.
